sys: use our roundup2/rounddown2() macros when param.h is available.
rounddown2 tends to produce longer lines than the original code and when the code has a high indentation level it was not really advantageous to do the replacement.
This tries to strike a balance between readability using the macros and flexibility of having the expressions, so not everything is converted.

A new implementation of the loader block cache
The block cache implementation in loader has proven to be almost useless, and in worst case even slowing down the disk reads due to insufficient cache size and extra memory copy. Also the current cache implementation does not cache reads from CDs, or work with zfs built on top of multiple disks. Instead of an LRU, this code uses a simple hash (O(1) read from cache), and instead of a single global cache, a separate cache per block device. The cache also implements limited read-ahead to increase performance. To simplify read ahead management, the read ahead will not wrap over bcache end, so in worst case, single block physical read will be performed to fill the last block in bcache.
Booting from a virtual CD over IPMI: 0ms latency, before: 27 second, after: 7 seconds 60ms latency, before: over 12 minutes, after: under 5 minutes.

Currently BERI's loader is including the 32-bit version of the FICL MIPS sysdep.h (sys/boot/ficl/mips/sysdep.h) instead of the 64-bit version (sys/boot/ficl/mips64/sysdep.h).
Although this may not be an issue in practice, it would be more correct if the 64-bit version was used. Also, using the 64-bit version would make it easier to add support for 64-bit ubldr on MIPS.

Increase BERI loader section alignment to 16
The .text, .bss, and .data sections claimed 16-byte alignment, but were only aligned to 8 by the linker script.
Discovered with strip(1) from elftoolchain, which performs validation absent from the binutils strip(1).

Revert r267233 for now. PIE support needs to be reworked.
1. 50+% of NO_PIE use is fixed by adding -fPIC to INTERNALLIB and other build-only utility libraries. 2. Another 40% is fixed by generating _pic.a variants of various libraries. 3. Some of the NO_PIE use is a bit absurd as it is disabling PIE (and ASLR) where it never would work anyhow, such as csu or loader. This suggests there may be better ways of adding support to the tree. Many of these cases can be fixed such that -fPIE will work but there is really no reason to have it in those cases. 4. Some of the uses are working around hacks done to some Makefiles that are really building libraries but have been using bsd.prog.mk because the code is cleaner. Had they been using bsd.lib.mk then NO_PIE would not have been needed.
We likely do want to enable PIE by default (opt-out) for non-tree consumers (such as ports). For in-tree though we probably want to only enable PIE (opt-in) for common attack targets such as remote service daemons and setuid utilities. This is also a great performance compromise since ASLR is expected to reduce performance. As such it does not make sense to enable it in all utilities such as ls(1) that have little benefit to having it enabled.

Give loaders more control over the Forth initialization process. In particular, allow loaders to define the name of the RC script the interpreter needs to use. Use this new-found control to have the PXE loader (when compiled with TFTP support and not NFS support) read from ${bootfile}.4th, where ${bootfile} is the name of the file fetched by the PXE firmware.
The normal startup process involves reading the following files: 1. /boot/boot.4th 2. /boot/loader.rc or alternatively /boot/boot.conf
When these come from a FreeBSD-defined file system, this is all good. But when we boot over the network, subdirectories and fixed file names are often painful to administrators and there's really no way for them to change the behaviour of the loader.

In preparation for ASLR [1] support add WITH_PIE to support building with -fPIE.
This is currently an opt-in build flag. Once ASLR support is ready and stable it should changed to opt-out and be enabled by default along with ASLR.
Each application Makefile uses opt-out to ensure that ASLR will be enabled by default in new directories when the system is compiled with PIE/ASLR. [2]
Mark known build failures as NO_PIE for now.
The only known runtime failure was rtld.

Commit a first cut at ports of boot2 and loader to 64-bit MIPS, with a particular interest in (and support for) SRI International and the University of Cambridge's BERI FPGA soft-core processor. This includes micro device drivers for the Altera JTAG UART console, memory-mapped flash, and the Altera SD Card IP core in both boot2 and loader. boot2 can be written to the on-board Intel StrataFlash on the DE4 board, and loader can be placed in StrataFlash or the SD Card.
Plenty of XXX comments, but works quite well locally in practice and I am using it daily. Although I had originally ported the ARM version of boot2, the current version is x86-derived as that proved more feature-complete. As we don't currently use partitions on our flash disks, support for that has been commented out relative to x86, but would be easy to add back. FDT support has not yet been hooked up, although some skeleton parts have been put in place for that.
This may well be a useful starting point for ports to other 32-bit and 64-bit MIPS-ISA systems.
This merge is synchronised to CheriBSD github commit e41d74fd719525d4dd7a7ee499114679165eeaf6, but with some additions of $FreeBSD.
